Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster Bibliography
Hi, and welcome to my Jerry Siegel and Joe
Shuster bibliography. Almost two years
ago, I began working on a project about these two men, and I was both amazed at
their tremendous body of work, and saddened by the fact that there are
virtually no decent sources of information on their works. These are the fathers of comic books, and the
fathers of the super-hero, and even today, over 25 years after settling their
long standing disputes with DC Comics, I find that in many cases their story
and their works are still swept under the rug and forgotten.
This list is massively incomplete, if anyone has
any additions, comments, questions, suggestions, or complaints, please feel
free to email me at kevindh@aol.com.
Also, I'm still working on a project about Joe and Jerry, and if anyone
has any stories or personal experiences with them I'd love to hear what you
have to say.
The latest version of this bibliography can
always be found at
www.enjolrasworld.com - the place for comic book
annotations and
bibliographies.
